Weaverham High School seeks to maximise learning, so that every member of its community: Weaverham High School is a vibrant, thriving and successful school where every member of our community feels valued, safe and supported to ensure they surpass their potential.
We want every child to enjoy their own journey of discovery, acquire a thirst for knowledge, creativity and imagination and develop a love for their learning.
Pupils leave our school not just with qualifications showing their academic success, but also with the capacity to think clearly and deeply, a desire to act with integrity and to show kindness and empathy to others, and with the character and leadership experience they need to thrive in the world.
